Small aggregations of scalloped hammerheads appear in the blue water below the Crevice exit during Guam's cooler winter months from December through March, using the steep drop-off as a navigation landmark on a larger circuit of the island's south coast. Sightings are not guaranteed but are frequent enough that operators include the Crevice on their best-chance hammerhead itineraries.

How is this calculated?

Sighting evidence is compiled from iNaturalist observation records within a set proximity radius, filtered for quality-grade observations. “Last confirmed” is the date of the most recent research-grade record. Record count covers a rolling 24-month window. Confidence reflects record count, recency, and consistency of seasonal signal.
